Left ventricular mass, stroke volume, and ouabain-like factor in essential hypertension.
Many patients with essential hypertension (EH) exhibit increased left ventricular mass. Similarly, elevated circulating levels of an endogenous ouabainlike factor (OLF) have been described in some but not all patients with EH. Moreover, ouabain has a hypertrophic influence on isolated cardiac myocytes. Accordingly, we investigated relationships among plasma OLF, left ventricular mass, and cardi...
متن کاملLeft ventricular mass and geometry in essential hypertension.
BACKGROUND It is unclear whether insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) are independent determinants of left ventricular (LV) mass in essential hypertension. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 101 never-treated nondiabetic subjects with essential hypertension. All had 24-hour noninvasive ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) monitoring and a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test. We determined fas...
متن کاملArterial pressure, left ventricular mass, and aldosterone in essential hypertension.
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the relationship of aldosterone to blood pressure and left ventricular size in black American (n=109) and white French Canadian (n=73) patients with essential hypertension. Measurements were obtained with patients off antihypertensive medications and included 24-hour blood pressure monitoring, plasma renin activity and aldosterone, and an echocar...
متن کاملEndogenous ouabain and hemodynamic and left ventricular geometric patterns in essential hypertension.
We sought to evaluate the relationships among circulating levels of an endogenous ouabain-like factor (EO) and systemic hemodynamics and left ventricular (LV) geometry in patients with recently diagnosed essential hypertension. We selected 92 never-treated patients with essential hypertension. Blood samples were drawn for estimation of plasma EO (radioimmunoassay) and subjects underwent echocar...
متن کاملPlasma ouabain-like factor during acute and chronic changes in sodium balance in essential hypertension.
An ouabain-like factor has been implicated repeatedly in salt-sensitive hypertension as a natriuretic agent. However, the response of plasma ouabain-like factor to acute and chronic variation of body sodium is unclear. We studied 138 patients with essential hypertension who underwent an acute volume expansion/contraction maneuver (2 days) and 20 patients who entered a blind randomized crossover...
